I took a shot and tried Manjaro. After using it for a few weeks, I can say that I absolutely love it, and will be a Manjaro user for a long time on my personal machines. For new users, I have been recommending Pop_OS.
Then my laptops ability to connect to WiFi broke, and there was no way I could figure out to solve it. So I made a new partition, installed Pop_OS, moves my old home directory to this one, and was done with it. Pop_OS has been amazing - I always liked GNOME 3, and Pop Shell really helps in that dept.
